Grammar Tips of the Day: 
* A quick way to start sentence variety is to start some of your sentences with an introductory phrase or clause, followed by a comma and the main clause of your sentence.  (They yellow is the introductory clause).

To get you started:
Words to start introductory phrase or clause...  after, although, as, when, while, until, because, before, if, since... OR...  participial phrases (a verb with -ing)..  looking back at. .  jumping through hoops . . . 

Because we are trying to become better writers, we are going to use sentence variety.

FYI- In writings with more than 3 sentences, you will be expected to integrate this type of sentence at least once.

1. Episode #2 "The Break up" Review-  First: As a group, identify the Costa's Level of Thinking for each question. Second:  Discuss OUT LOUD with your Jury Group. Put ideas/discussion points into Jury Notes.

• Why did Hae and Adnan keep their relationship a secret from their parents? 
• What parent was the most concerned about dating outside of religion? Why?
• How did this perspective play into Adnan's trial? 
• What was Hae's perspective of the relationship? Provide 5 examples as evidence. 
• What was Adnan's perspective of the relationship? Provide 5 examples as evidence. 

2. Once your group is DONE thoroughly discussing each question, please go to Schoology and write a 3-sentence summary of "The Breakup" (utilizing the Tips of the Day), AND enter in the Costa's Level for each question. You DO NOT need to submit the answers.

3. Work on Episode #2 Questions.
(FYI. . . we will be finishing up Episode #2 questions for tomorrow).
